Wike Signs 5,481 C-of-O In just One Year- Aide

… FCT Land Allottees to Get Title Documents In Two Weeks

By Joyce Remi-Babayeju

As at December 31, 2024, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, had signed a total of 5,481 Certificates of Occupancy (C-of-O).

The Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, to the FCT minister, Lere Olayinka, said this in a statement on Tuesday.

This is 2,919 less than the total number of C-of-O printed and signed by the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) from 2010 to 2023 (13 years).

Olayinka said,”The moment necessary payments are made, land allottees can now get their C-of-O within two weeks.”

According to the statement, one of the reasons land allottees do not find it compelling to pay for their C-of-O is because when they pay, they wait for years. But in line with the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s government, that has changed now.

“Even uploading necessary information to show when a C-of-O is collected as well as details on the collector that used to take months is now done within 72 hours.”

Providing details of C-of-O produced and signed in the FCT in the past 15 years, the Minister’s Spokesperson said; “From May 2010 to May 2015, a total of 5,655 Certificates of Occupancy were produced and signed.

“From May 2015 to May 2019, a total of 1,174 Certificates of Occupancy were produced and signed, while 1,571 were done between May 2019 and May 2023.

“Meanwhile, from May 2023 that President Tinubu assumed office until December 31, 2024, a total of 5,481 Certificates of Occupancy were produced and signed by the FCT Minister.

“Also, in the following weeks, land allottees whose C-of-O are ready for collection will begin to receive auto-generated SMS because it has been discovered that most of them don’t even know that their title documents are ready.”
